Upgraded gti6 brake setup

[cjm_harris]

Hi chaps,

As I have now moved on to KAD 6 pots for my track car, the standard brakes will now be up for sale. They will come with braided lines, Mintex 1144 pads and standard discs.

They were painted red (pretty badly) while on the car, so before refitting they could do with being repainted, but if you are not bothered about that, they are ready to go. Pads and discs have plenty of life left in them.

Probably could of cleaned them before taking pictures, but hey ho :laugh









Not sure what to price these at, so lets say £80 plus postage?

Any questions or offers, let me know.

Havent got them on my meridian estate, well I dont think so anyway

[Kezzieboy]

So tempted to spend all my monies on these lol.

[cjm_harris]

I will also be going to french car show so I could bring them with me if someone wants them to save on delivery

Doesn't matter just cut the plugs and cables off

[LewisG]

hmmm, might have to have these then, how long have the discs and pads got on them?

[cjm_harris]

I haven't had the pad wear sensors connected for god know how long. They ain't needed!

Will be loads of life left on the pads and discs. Pads have worn down sod all since they have been on the car and discs have sod all lip on them. Can hardly feel it

[cjm_harris]

Fair bit of interest but no takers. Fair price?

[zx_volcane]

absolutely a fair price

pads are what, £100+ a pair? and they look about brand new to me.

I'm running pretty much this setup on mine, same 1144 pads

Thanks mate.

Yeah pads alone were over £100, couple of years old now, but the car has only done a few thousand miles since then.

Will these fit on my 205 with currently standard bendix calipers

Not sure on this. I know the brakes will fit on 205 gti hubs, but I dont know if yours are any different. Usually need 15" wheels to clear too, so if you are running 14" wheels I would say they wont fit.

[pugmanxud]

Okay. I'm running 14" saxo vtr wheels. Would these make my brakes significantly better

[td_dan]

They will fit the 1.6/stdt hubs and the 1.9s but will need longer brake hoses, also need 15inch wheels as said

What difference do these pads make? Still ok for daily use?"

They are just a bit more focused to track, but sold as fast road/track. I used mine on the road and they were fine, and pretty good on the track with decent bite etc.

I havent really used many other performance pads so cant give an analysis based against others, but I was always happy with them.

Price drop to £70 as could do with the cash.

Bit of a trek from Birmingham

Over in Corby mate, about an hour east from you.

[Kezzieboy]

Hmmm...and how much would it cost to post them?

Not 100% at the minute, will get postage costs tomorrow

[cjm_harris]

To those interested, as the parcel weighs 25kg it will be £17.99 ex VAT to courier, so will do them for £90 delivered.

£80 delivered if paid for this week

[Kezzieboy]

Fcuk me that's expensive, I could drive there and back to pick them up for a little less than that :/

Be my guest

And yeah, its shit. Usually end up shooting myself in the foot, quoting what I think it would cost to post, then find out its double what I thought!

[zx_volcane]

It's the weight that'll do the postage in - still think this is a really good price all in considering the pads that come with it and braided lines
